Maha Ayew, daughter of Ghana captain Andre Ayew, reportedly collapsed after his penalty miss against Uruguay on Friday, December 2.
Ghana was presented with an opportunity to make it to the last 16 of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar but Andre’s effort was saved by goalkeeper Sergio Rochet.
However, Ghana went to suffer a 2-0 defeat against the two time world champions.
According to Joy Sports’ Fentuo Tahiru, Ayew’s daughter collapsed after his dad missed from 12 yards.
